Trawler ran aground near Tondra
The 'Sedulous - LK 308' with five crew members on board ran aground near Trondra on March 21, 2020, around 3.30 a.m. at the north end of the island. The trawler was leaving Scalloway Harbour to head for fishing grounds to the west of the islands. Seven volunteers from the Aith Lifeboat Station responded to the emergency call and reached the site of the incident before 5.20 a.m. with the RNLI boat 'Charles Lidbury'. Another local trawler, the 'Radiant Star - LK 71', was already in the area and had offered its assistance, along with Scalloway Harbour pilot boat Lyrie. After waiting for the tide to rise, the 'Radiant Star' managed to establish a tow line with the 'Sedulous' and pulled the vessel back to deeper water before any serious damage occurred. The 'Sedulous' was then able to return to port in Scalloway under her own steam, escorted by the RNLI boat. The Aith Lifeboat had returned to its station by 8.00 a.m. Report with photo: https://rnli.org/news-and-media/2020/march/21/shetland-fishing-boat-towed-off-the-rocks
